2013 Last Resort Custom Truck Show

Turning a Sleepy Town into a Custom Truck Mecca

Stuart Daigle presented the ninth annual Last Resort Car, Truck, and Bike Show October 18-20, 2013. Set in The Louisiana Oil and Gas Park in Jennings, Louisiana, it is right off the freeway, but it is small town and quiet…until the varied assortment of custom trucks, mini trucks, and cars come rolling through the gates. If you show up by Friday evening, Stuart and his team usually have some great, hot food in the evening for the registered exhibitors and vendors. It is his way of saying thanks and welcome, and with the cold weather, a welcome treat for sure.

The show had over 350 registered vehicles and 1,500 spectators. Over 80 awards were handed out, plus best of awards. Some awards went to different non-vehicular competitions including a pizza eating competition, a tug o’ war, frozen t-shirt competition (where contestants tried to unroll frozen shirts and get them on first), a live auction, and a human wheelbarrow competition.

Stuart wants to thank O’Reilly, GVG After Hours Kustoms, Pull-A-Part, Rimco, and many more sponsors for which this show could not happen. He is planning some special stuff for the 10-year anniversary of the show set in the same location.
